I have Crohn's Disease for about 45 years, ick, There have been issues with my lungs or at least the left one at the moment. After time and CT scans etc. I have Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis . I just wondered if anyone else who has Crohn's might have this as well . They don't know why I have it hence, Idiopathic,. But I'm thinking auto immune disease why not. Let me know your thoughts or info of anykind. Thankyou
And Keep well
Joy

I'm so very sorry to hear of this diagnosis. I'm not familiar with it, and haven't heard of any association with other auto immune disorders. I hope there's treatment advances for this. How are you feeling physically and emotionally? Sorry I can't be of more help.

I thank you for your kind words . I'm doing well for now . I have been very blessed my doctor has been on this before it really showed up she really thought this is what I had and now proof positive. Most people don't find out until it they have breathing issues. I hope your daughter is doing well. Thank-you for your reply.
